Show Notes

Reluctant to recognise the new government in Syria, fighters from the Druze minority have been involved in sectarian violence. A ceasefire is in place, but some Druze leaders have called for international protection. So, how will President Ahmed al-Sharaa deal with them? And how is Israel's involvement complicating the situation?

In this episode: 

  • Louay Safi, Syrian Political Scientist.
